To assign proper credit, I learned that trick from the 264x terminals
manufactured by HP in the mid-to-late 70s. In those days most computer
fans still used AC motors, so HP operated 240 VAC muffin fans at 120 VAC
to exhaust the terminal heat in a virtually silent fashion. Modern

apropos temperature some of the embedded vendors test some of
their boards by immersing them in boiling water, or so they tell me.
ouch!

Again, great point. An evaluation board built around S3C2440 I experimented
with worked surprisingly well at 50+ degrees Celsius ambient temperature,
no ventilation, running straight for over two months until somebody turned
it off. And it wasn't even near industrial grade. Linux support for tha
SOC? 4 arms is more fun to try and boot than 1.

Very good point. And, an extremely tempting experiment you have introduced
me/us to out of your mighty rucksack. Could prove to be the downfall of me,
buying a few more PC-104 (don't need be PC-104+, right?) Geode boards (I
already got one based on LX 800). Thank you :-)

Despite being touted as fanless and most C7-based boards being equipped
only with heatsinks they get hot as hell. Right now I'm experimenting on a
board (custom form factor) built around VIA Eden 1.2 GHz, CX700 chipset,
with FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE (1 GB RAM, 8 GB IDE SSD, networked, and an

SB600 seems to support AHCI.
Could you name some mobos
based on SB600, that you use?

Is the VIA C7 too old to support AHCI?
That is, do you have to emulate SATA
as IDE?
Best,

gave spontanious i/o errors if you use multiple drives and sata
was emulated as ide.
i use plan9 on sb600 based machines now and it works perfectly.

My primary terminal is an Epia-EX motherboard with a 1 GHz C3. It's
diskless so I can't speak for the IDE or SATA support, but video
(1920x1080) and network are fine. If the board you are looking at uses
the same (or similar) N/S-bridge chips you should be fine.
